    I went from AWD to RWD and I love it. The only thing is, there is more of a safety factor of AWD that I miss.

    it doesn't have to rain to do that and be under control, at least for a semi-skilled driver...as far as it not being as loud and a LITTLE less dangerous I agree There have been MANY times that I've gone sliding(I won't call it drifting cuz I wasn't going fast enough) through open parking lots/empty neighborhoods etc...Then again I've done it dry and tire smoke=attention.

    You sure as hell can slide a FWD car around in the rain. Don't ever buy a rental car, our last one was FWD.... poor thing. It slid, oh yes, it slid.

    Funniest thing about this thread is how many people saying how much they love RWD in this thread actually own a RWD car.

    I like both, never owned an AWD car, just driven a few here and there. You can do some things with a RWD that you can't do with FWD but there are FWD cars that handle amazingly well and are a hell of a lot of fun to drive. I own a RWD car and I like it a lot but I have no problem with FWD cars at all.

    I voted RWD, its way more fun. I love my AWD but sometimes I'd like to be able to play around more with it on pavement.

    I think that with a limited slip in a front wheel drive car, it closes the gap on the RWD>FWD thing because if you let off the gas in a corner, the front wheels might push but if you give it more gas it will start gripping harder into the corner and sometimes the tail might start sliding out (providing the suspension is set up right for it). I still agree that RWD>FWD but for power to weight, it's the other way around. AWD is like FWD but with training wheels.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    zero people have voted for FWD yet there are millions of them on here.

    The reason for me picking RWD is because it will always be faster. Even tho i have a civic si and it faster than every car in the world, i would pick RWD any day

    umm no. thats y there is no FWD drift cars. when u hit the gas, it pushes.

    but yes, FWD is very fast... look at the autocross results from points 1
